The Vertical Adjusting Knob has a pre-installed nut
and washer. Screw the knob into the hinge leaving
about 3/8” under the nut. Apply grease under the
knob and top of nut. Install the Hinge to the “C”
hub face plate, apply grease to hinge face and
washer plate to help movement up and down. Be
sure that the washer and the nut are below the
flange on the “C” hub face (as shown on left). Use
two 3/8 x 3/4” bolts and one washer plate to attach
the hinge to the “C” hub. Install all Hinges onto the
press at this time, be sure to grease all sliding sur-
faces as mentioned above.
Next step is the installation of the Hinge, Extension Arm, and Print Head. There are two available Print Heads for
the V-1000. Both are installed in the same manor, only differing in number of springs and a Kickstand.
The Standard Print Head, pictured below on the left, has a single pair of springs used for lifting and holding
the Print Head.
The HD Print Head, pictured below on the right, can have 4 springs at once, as well as a spring loaded Kick
stand. The HD Print Head can be used with either 2 springs and the Kickstand, or 4 springs and the Kick-
stand.

The print heads are shipped fully assembled. They need to
be installed onto the Hinge. The print heads are held in the
raised position with two springs. The first step is to insert
both springs into their mounting holes on the print head.
Always mount springs from the outside in. Choose lower
holes for wood or aluminum screens, upper holes for roller
frames. Insert the Floating Pivot Pin on the Head into the
slot on the Hinge. While tilting the Head back, hook the
springs into the Spring mounting hole in hinge as shown
on left.
HD Head users:
Follow the same instructions for wood
and aluminum frames. You will use the middle spring posi-
tion on the Print Head with the inner position on the Hinge.
If using oversized frames or the DiGiT, refer to
step 11
